Snowdrift Cider Co. Red Cider
This striking Contemporary Cider pours a brilliant crimson, a visual testament to the rare red-fleshed apples sourced from ancestral Kazakhstani lineages. The sensory profile is defined by a vivid, bracing acidity that carries intense notes of fresh cranberries and tart rhubarb, balanced by the softer sweetness of ripe watermelon and sun-warmed strawberries. As the initial brightness subsides, the palate reveals a sophisticated depth, concluding with unexpected hints of soft toffee. At 7.5% ABV, it presents a structured mouthfeel that carries the high-intensity fruit esters through a clean, lingering finish, showcasing the unique character of heritage red-fleshed fruit.
Appearance. Deep crimson red to ruby; brilliant clarity. Minimal head retention with a light pinkish tint to the bubbles that dissipates quickly. Moderate effervescence.
Aroma. High intensity; dominated by sharp, tart apple and red fruit esters reminiscent of cranberry and wild strawberry. Very clean fermentation profile with a subtle, sweet undertone of caramelized sugar or light toffee. No hop aroma.
Taste. Initial impression is of sharp, bright malic acidity. Flavors of tart cranberry and rhubarb transition into a sweeter watermelon and strawberry mid-palate. The finish is remarkably clean, featuring a lingering note of soft toffee that balances the high acidity. Complexity is high due to the unique apple variety; no hop bitterness or flavor.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a crisp, refreshing texture. Moderate carbonation provides a lively prickle on the tongue. A noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, with very low tannin-driven astringency.
